It's annoying and poorly documented but it now seems necessary to use "tap:aio" instead of "file".
i.e. for your example: disk = [ 'tap:aio:/images/win2k3disk.img,ioemu:hda,w', 'tap:aio:/images/win2k3iso.img,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r'] This should work. -- losetup fails when using the 'file:/', preventing the DomU from being created https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/211726 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
